Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Dear Bettie, I wish I could give you a big hug. I am so sorry to hear of Harv's passing. I know your heart is just broken. It is such a mixture of emotions - missing him so much, but thankful he is no longer suffering and is at peace. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Dear Bettie, Please accept my most heartfelt condolences for the loss of your sweet Harv.

Harv died Tuesday morning at 10:00 am. He fought hard to stay but the parkinsonism had paralized his throat so he could not eat or drink. We had him on morphine every 3 hours for three day's. It along with the klonapin seemed to keep him comfortable for a while. He was so brave and I will miss him so much but his raviged body was just so tired. He just finally gave up when he could not eat. Eating was so much of who he was, ice cream, cake and all thing chocklet. We are having a celabration of life cervice on Saturday and I am making a dvd of pictures of our wonderful, fun filled 10 years we had together. We had a love few ever get the chance to experiance and I am thankful for that. Thanks for the support and know that what you are doing for you LO is a labor of love, I would not have done it any other way. Love to you all and God Bless our loved ones. Bettie J.
